L.B.J.'s War
Description
For centuries the Mekong Delta had been the water lifeline into the heart of Vietnam. A short hour's drive from Saigon, it was also the Viet Cong's backyard. In fact Victor Charlie was so secured in the delta that we used its villages as a rest area for battle-weary troops. Operation Blackhawk was planned to rob the communists of their safe heaven. The mission of the operation was to search and destroy enemy encampments, secure his weapons and to crush his defender.
